C                   
She don't like her eggs all runny
C                            
She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
    F
She looks down her nose at money
    C
She gets it on like the Easter Bunny
G             G
She's my baby I'm her honey
G                       C
I'm never gonna let her go

He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
He ain't too sharp but he gets things done
Drinks his beer like it's oxygen
He's my baby
And I'm his honey
Never gonna let him go

C            F
In spite of ourselves
F                           C
We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow
C           G
Against all odds
G                         C
Honey, we're the big door prize
C           F
We're gonna spite our noses
F                C
Right off of our faces
C              G                   G
There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
G              C
Dancin' in our eyes.
